Diverticular mass mimicking ovarian malignancy.
A patient is described with a large diverticular mass presenting with a clinical picture suggestive of locally advanced ovarian malignancy. Computed tomography demonstrated diffuse thickening of the wall of the sigmoid colon with infiltration of the peri-colonic fat. The imaging diagnosis of primary bowel wall disease was confirmed pathologically.
